The bond between a father and daughter is precious, and nothing can take the glitter away from it!
Painted upon a gilded shore, soaked in the warm depths of the ocean, glistening with silvery beads, the heart of her father; he was a mountain battling the tides, an embrace of unconditional love unfolding into a peaceful lullaby; her tiny hands stretched out, his teary eyes feigned a smile and unwrapped every wish with sleepless nights unforgiving towards him, who dared to transcend every ordeal to embellish his daughter’s countenance with a sparkle of happiness; tonight, she swirls and twirls like a princess, dazzling in white, walking down the aisle, a new beginning is sketched upon the canvas of emotions, bedecked with a daughter’s devotion like a diamond studded sky pouring glitter on the blue ocean; behold, an unforgettable love story unfolds, a young man holds the sand of emotions in the palm of his hands, a beautiful castle is built with laughter of daughter and father, how her father reminds the young man of his father, when he watches the aged man, wearing a blue hat, run his fingers through his daughter’s hair, singing her a lullaby, memories float towards the shore from the vast ocean of hope, finding solace in the cradle of love, brimming with unforgettable tales of devotion flowing through the heart of a daughter; her father is collecting a few golden rays, with shaky hands for her wedding present, dissolving them into iridescent shades of love upon the walls of the castle; the daughter watches a journey of years from the windowsill of her new room, the glitter of the moon settling as pearls on her skin, such a beautiful world, she sings, her prince, her king, like son and father, her golden wish is fulfilled.

Falling in love, marriage, a hidden secret, divorce. Despite all this, Vinita noticed her life was full of love that came in various unexpected shades!
“Aap jinke kareeb hotey hain, woh badey kush naseeb hotey hain…”
Just as Vinita was settling down into the cab seat, the driver put on music and the song started to play. It took her back immediately to that evening ten years ago, when Gautam had sung that very same song to her on the first evening they had met. She could remember every single detail of that evening so very clearly.
The driver obliged and immediately stopped the bus for them. Many men got down. They shamelessly lined up just by the side of the bus and peed on the other side of the road.
I work in Pune. My family lives far away from me in a small town along the coast of Konkan. I get to meet them once every fortnight for which I have to take a nine-hour long overnight bus journey.
